The recipe was easy to follow. The cake was very moist. I used coconut on top instead of sugar. I also used the dark chocolate instead of what the recipe calls for. Excellent, excellent! I will make it again soon.

This is a very good cake. I did use dark chocolate instead of the milk chocolate, and did not use the lemon juice at all. Bakes it in a tube pan and baked it for 60-65 minutes. Stays very moist, and it is better the day after it is baked, if you can keep everyone away from it that long.
